Quick give the international distress signal!

I'm flying to Egypt (Sharm El Sheik) in a couple of hours, in fact my long long journey begins at 03:33 GMT which is merely an hour and a bit away now...yeah no sleep til takeoff for me! I'm kinda in that bouncy mood where one minute I feel I've set what I want from my hand luggage but then I think "oh no but I want to take this with me" the "this" is generally speaking, my laptop I'm aware the hotel room will have a safe for valuble goods what will keep it secure but I'm still concerned about taking it my travel insurance covers baggage up to £500 but my laptop is £800 to begin with. I'm not overly concerned about damage, I have private insurance to deal with that on it. However the risk of theft does bother me...it's a painful decision.

So to give a topic on this...

If you were going on holiday would you take something very valuble and important to you on it?

Take the clothes on my back a wallet in my pocket, buy everything you need including a suitcase over there. That's how the pros do it amirite Breine? :breine:

Do you have home insurance with Personal Possessions outside of home added? If so that should cover your laptop if stolen.



I work in insurance.

I don't really go away to decide whether or not to take this and that, to be honest. I went up to Birmingham the other day and I just kept nervously checking my coming home tickets.

Otherwise I just take me, myself, and I :D QUIT PANICKING it's not too long now ^______^ Hope you have fun, regardless. You could always keep your laptop on you, somewhere people don't mug ;)
